3. Place the same edge of the workplece
against the fence for all cuts. Make the first cut
at one end of the workpiece, then flip the
workpiece over and make the second cut from
the other end. Continue this way until all four
cuts are made. (Figure. 121)
2. Place the long edge of your framing
square against the edge of the
workpiece that will be held against the
fence during cutting. Make sure that
this edge of the workpiece is straight.
3. Make sure that your workpiece lays
fiat on the front table of your saw.
4. Clean all sawdust and woodchips
from the table.
5. Hold the workpiece firmly against the
fence and table during all cuts. You
should use extra force during miter and
bevel cuts since the workpiece tends to
move when these cuts are made.
"6. Use the right sawblade for each job,
and make sure that all blades and cut-
ting tools are sharp.
When making a four-sided frame:
1. Make sure that the top and bottom
pieces are exactly the same length.
